Washington State coach Tony Bennett has been hired as Virginia's men's basketball coach. Washington State athletic director Jim Sterk announced the move Monday evening. He said Virginia asked for permission to speak with Bennett on Friday.

Blake Griffin was the only unanimous selection for the AP All-America team.

He was joined by senior Tyler Hansbrough of North Carolina, sophomores DeJuan Blair of Pittsburgh, James Harden of Arizona State and junior Stephen Curry of Davidson.

Connecticut center Hasheem Thabeet led the second team with 238 points and was joined by three other juniors, Ty Lawson of North Carolina, Luke Harangody of Notre Dame and Jodie Meeks of Kentucky, along with senior Jerel McNeal of Marquette.

The third team had seniors Terrence Williams of Louisville, Toney Douglas of Florida State and Sam Young of Pittsburgh, along with juniors Sherron Collins of Kansas and Gerald Henderson of Duke.

Seth Curry, brother of Davidson sharp shooter Stephen and son of former Charlotte Hornet Dell, has decided to transfer from Liberty to Duke, the Associated Press is reporting.

Curry was the nation's top scoring freshman, averaging 20.2 points a game. He will have to sit out next season before starting his scholarship with the Blue Devils.

"Coach K kept telling him the timing couldn't be better," Dell Curry told The Associated Press. "There'll be plenty of opportunities to contribute."

Seth Curry said the opportunity to continue his career at Duke, and get a Duke education were other major factors in the decision. Dell Curry said the family was wowed by the new Duke practice facility, which Dell said is on par with NBA facilities.

Florida coach Billy Donovan said on Friday that he's committed to the university and isn't going anywhere.

"In response to the rumors circulating about my interest in other jobs, I wanted to address this as quickly as possible," Donovan said in a statement. "I am committed to the University of Florida and look forward to continuing to build our program here."

Kentucky fired Billy Gillispie on Friday, which started rumors that Donovan might have interest in the vacancy.

Billy Gillispie, who was fired by Kentucky after two disappointing seasons, doesn't have any hard feelings towards the university.

"I wish we would have won more," Gillispie said Saturday.

Gillispie met with reporters for about 30 minutes, and didn't appear like a man who recently lost his job.

"I'm not a woe-is-me kind of person," Gillispie said. "I've always said this, show up every day, try to work hard, try to do your best with the right attitude and everything works out right. I've had a great time here at Kentucky."
